Abstract
In this paper we describe two pairs of raising/lowering operators for Askey- Wilson polynomials, which result from constructions involving very different techniques. The first technique is quite elementary, and depends only on the "classical" properties of these polynomials, viz. the q-difference equation and the three term recurrence. The second technique is less elementary, and involves the one-variable version of the double affine Hecke algebra.
